This book is aimed at people looking to get 'more' than just a salary out of their working life. Dr Howard analyses a recent social movement through the inspiring first-hand stories of some 30 individuals from a wide variety of economic and educational backgrounds who struggled to put meaning back into their jobs. Along the way, some have changed practices and values in their departments or even entire companies, while others have left the corporate work to work in charities or the not-for-profit sector. There are stories that chronicle the rise of the social enterprise, and explore how these businesses embed social values into the business mission. Finally, some individuals have shared their experiences through books, networks and international groups open to all who seek similar fulfilment.
